Spike Lee To Preview ‘Da Sweet Blood Of Jesus’ at City Winery, February 10th

Filmmaker Spike Lee is set to take over NYC’s City Winery on February 10th for a very special evening of film, wine and music capped by a sneak peek of Da Sweet Blood of Jesus – the forthcoming film billed as “The Newest, Hottest Spike Lee Joint.” The event will celebrate Lee’s career as a groundbreaking director with a look back at some of his most iconic “joints” from She’s Gotta Have It to the present. Spike Lee will screen selections from the films and lead a discussion about his rich body of work with guests. Each ticket purchased for the preview event will include six wines paired with Lee’s films and a special musical performance to round out the affair – a great addition given the importance of Spike Lee’s film scores. Check the footage below to view the trailer for Da Sweet Blood of Jesus. Purchase tickets for the event via citywinery.com. Keep up with the film’s progress via Kickstarter and Facebook. Stay tuned for more from Spike Lee.
